PC configurations

Note that this page is not directly related to any MCU project. Since I'm installing quite a number of different linux configurations on systems, this page contains some notes on how they've been configured.

• Ubuntu 10.04
• mythtv from synaptic
• mythweb
• phpmyadmin
• unsuccessful move to new Nvidia graphics card (FIXME)
• tv_grab_nl_py script
